Jingrou shook her head. "How could that be? Although we're close, I've never had such thoughts! The Crown Prince is so busy; he certainly wouldn't have time for such things." She smiled, thinking that Wenying was joking with her. Perhaps she felt shy about talking about her own situation, so she changed the subject to herself.
Wen Ying remained noncommittal.
In her mind, her good friend was currently blinded by her own involvement, because being in this relationship naturally prevented her from noticing anything unusual.
Because he is currently caught up in this mystery, he doesn't feel anything unusual at all, but everyone around him feels that something is a little strange.
Moreover, after all these years, Jingrou has probably gotten used to this way of getting along.
But those watching from the sidelines didn't think this was normal.
Let's first see which prince in the palace would get so close to a young girl, and with such an obviously unusual attitude?
Even siblings might not be that close because they don't live in the same place; this kind of situation is very common!
Moreover, the relatives in this relationship were likely all tacitly approved by the Emperor and the ladies of the palace.
Wen Ying didn't know what Consort Yi was thinking. In her opinion, it seemed that the elders didn't think there was anything wrong with the relationship between the two. But couldn't the elders think of this?
How could that be? Even a young girl like her could think of that, so how could she possibly keep it from Consort Yi and Prince An? Perhaps they're happy to see it happen!
Not to mention the emperor.
So Wenying felt that perhaps their relationship had been drained of its blood, which made her even more envious. Although she didn't yearn for such genuine affection, because she had never considered it, Jingrou was no longer troubled by such things. How could she not be envious?
What matter, big or small, does the Emperor not know about in the palace?
“But look around the palace, which pair of close friends see each other almost every day? Even if they can’t meet because of something, they still have to send someone to let you know?” Wen Ying explained, seeing Jing Rou’s rebuttal, so she wanted to give an example.
"Leaving aside us, just looking at whether it's that kind of relationship between a man and a woman?" Wen Ying blinked.
Whether their relationship is normal or not, it's definitely special enough in everyone's eyes!
After all, there's no other couple like them in the entire palace!
Moreover, other people might have to face criticism or be dissuaded by their elders if they were to get too close, but only the two of them were ignored by others, who were even happy to see it happen.
They are still relatively young, having been childhood playmates, and they are also related by blood.
However, their kinship is not close at all; they are already so far apart.
If they get a little older, it's a bit of a stretch to insist on bringing this up!
Besides, aren't all those princesses and princes siblings?
Even if they don't share the same mother, isn't their relationship closer than that of Jingrou and the Crown Prince? Why is it that only Jingrou and the Crown Prince are so close? Although they are brothers and sisters, who would take that seriously?
It's important to understand that royal bloodlines are both the most important and the least important thing!
Jingrou was stunned. She really didn't think anything of it... Maybe it was because this had been the way things had been all these years, so she had taken it for granted, and her elders had never said anything about it!
Firstly, she subconsciously felt that the two of them were both young and could not possibly have a relationship with the opposite sex; they were just children.
Although her mental age is not as young as it appears now, she has lived the life of a child for several years, and she feels that her psychology is somewhat limited by her physiology, resulting in childlike behavior.
So she thought it was perfectly normal.
Although the two had a very good relationship, they didn't spend every day together. Even when they met, they would only exchange a few words.
In most cases, the conversation ends after a few words. Only rarely, or when something comes up, do they talk a lot or discuss something...
In any case, they usually only exchanged a few words. Jingrou just took it as Yinreng being polite, since he always informed her of anything he needed to do.
So in Jingrou's eyes, it's a very normal friendship, maybe more like an older brother relationship, since she has too many older brothers!
Indeed... sometimes when Yinreng was busy, he would send someone to tell her that the originally planned meeting place would be temporarily canceled.
However, Jingrou thought it was perfectly normal. It was just a polite gesture. Could he really just leave quietly and wait there without telling her?
Jingrou was puzzled, but she couldn't find the words to refute him for a moment, because perhaps in other people's eyes, this was indeed not quite normal.
Because of Wenying's interruption, Jingrou didn't have a chance to say what she was thinking about.
She felt that the two of them had a very normal relationship, just a normal good friendship, but seeing Wenying's expression, she knew that she definitely wouldn't believe it!
Huh? Although she theoretically transmigrated from the modern era, she has spent so many years in this time and space that she has become like a child in terms of mental maturity. She may be more mature in her thinking about some things, but this environment has subtly influenced her a lot. Moreover, she started to awaken at the age of three, since she was originally a transmigrator.
Her childlike way of interacting, combined with some modern thinking, led her to think that their relationship was perfectly normal, perhaps overlooking the fact that the boundaries between men and women are quite clear in this era...
She frowned deeply.
Wenying patted her on the shoulder. She didn't mean to enlighten her good friend, but seeing that she still seemed so nonchalant made her a little anxious.
After all, the two are about the same age. If I were to start thinking about family matters, wouldn't Jingrou be the same?
The Crown Prince is already her best choice, and judging from his tolerant and affectionate attitude towards her, she would definitely be very happy if she could marry into his family!
Wenying wished them well.
